Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 337 Chang'an's Spring Plowing

"I pay my respects to Princess An Guo Pingyang!"

Just as Dr. Su was about to bow down, Princess Pingyang glanced to the side, Rugui had already stepped forward quickly, and held him back so that he could not continue to bow down——

This is Jiang Lin's father-in-law.Jiang Lin and Xue Lang are brothers, and they are also the elders of Princess Pingyang. Although it is fine to accept this gift in her capacity, Princess Pingyang obviously has no such plan.

Xue Lang just has low EQ, not a fool, so he naturally understands Princess Pingyang's intentions, and his heart is full of warmth.After greeting each other, Princess Pingyang was welcomed to the throne.The furniture in Jiang Lin's residence was given by Xue Lang when he moved.

Originally, a respectable elder should be invited to crown the crown ceremony.However, crowning should be done before marriage.Jiang Lin was young and ignorant of etiquette and customs, and Xue Lang was an outsider, so he was even more ignorant.If Princess Pingyang hadn't mentioned it, Jiang Lin's plan was to ask Xue Lang to help him find a word when he was old.Therefore, today's crowning ceremony will only be attended by my own family, without outside invitations.If you lose face and make a mistake, it's good for your family to know.

The character is Princess Pingyang, and the elder wearing the crown is Jiang Lin's father-in-law, Dr. Su.When the auspicious time came, Jiang Lin came in wearing his clothes and stood under the mat.

Princess Pingyang looked at him gently, and said: "A Lin, I will choose the word Haoge for you today. It comes from "Chu Ci", looking forward to the future of beauty, and Haoge in the wind. I hope you will be a handsome and upright man! "

Xue Lang has read "The Songs of Chu", and Haoge means to sing freely!Jiang Lin, the name is Haoge...Jiang Haoge does sound chic and suave.Her Royal Highness is indeed more knowledgeable than him!

A gleam of joy flashed across Jiang Lin's face, and immediately saluted Princess Pingyang solemnly, and replied loudly: "Here!"

"Wear a crown!"

Dr. Su stepped forward and put a hair crown on him.

"Licheng!"

The crowning ceremony is complete.The crown ceremony in the Tang Dynasty was relatively simple, and few people performed it. Unlike the Song Dynasty, Sima Guang specially wrote a set of etiquette procedures.Crown ceremonies in the Tang Dynasty were generally determined by members of their own families, and many people did not practice crown ceremonies at all. When they reached their age, they could just add characters and crowns before they got married.Jiang Lin made up for it today.

When Chinese people do things, they always have something to do with eating. After the crowning ceremony, it is natural to eat, drink and celebrate. Jiang Lin's mansion has already prepared it.Just as the banquet was about to start, Princess Pingyang said: "For today's banquet, everyone can join together, there is no need to avoid suspicion."

Although the Tang Dynasty said that the folk customs were open, but at the banquet, the women's family members and the men had to share the table to avoid suspicion, and the more noble the status, the more particular.Of course, there are also people who do not avoid suspicion, and men and women share the same table, which generally only happens between relatives and friends who do not see each other.

Therefore, on the day of Jiang Lin's coronation ceremony, two tables were set up in the room, without a screen separating them. The women's relatives sat at one table, and the men sat at the other table. There were several rounds of wine orders on the table, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

Xue Lang sat with a smile on his face, knowing in his heart that Her Royal Highness the Princess offered not to share the table today, obviously because she and Xue Lang had already agreed on their names, knowing that all the relatives and friends present were Xue Lang's relatives and friends. , Her Royal Highness, this is for Xue Lang's face.Xue Lang was almost moved to death, his face was full of smiles, his eyes were full of pride, his chest was burning hot——

This is His Royal Highness the Princess whom he loves!

After the crowning ceremony, Jiang Lin was going back to the barracks.Xue Lang originally wanted to choose people from the trilogy to follow Jiang Lin, but was stopped by Princess Pingyang, who said: "Ah Lin's personal soldiers should be selected from the army, there is no need to take them from home."

The two brothers are not stupid, and they didn't expect to be clicked by Princess Pingyang, but they both understood Princess Pingyang's intentions, so they naturally stopped insisting.

After Jiang Lin took the words, Su Han started to prepare to go out to buy candies and come back.As far as the luxury goods market is concerned, Chang'an is naturally the largest and has the most consumers.

The main market for the candy made by Xue Lang is Chang'an.In order not to cause turbulence and alertness to the market, the purchase of candy can only go to the surrounding areas. Chang’an City only intends to purchase a few. After all, there are many high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Chang’an City. The sugar market caused too many shocks, and the censor of the Tang Dynasty was not a vegetarian.

It just so happened that the furniture store's initial profits had already been obtained, so Xue Lang selected a team from the series to guard Su Han, and started the journey of earning money.

Around Chang'an, where is there a sugar workshop, where is there a sugarcane plantation, etc., Xue Lang has asked Princess Pingyang to collect it and hand it over to Su Han——

Xue Lang is not a pedantic person, and he doesn't shy away from letting Princess Pingyang know his embarrassment, and there is no way to hide it. Princess Pingyang has long known that he is short of money.

As a man, if he had to make up for the bride price for his daughter-in-law, he would be ashamed to see others.Xue Lang didn't mind borrowing the power of Princess Pingyang to collect the necessary information, but only minded that Princess Pingyang was involved in the preparation of the dowry.Fortunately, the two parties are currently in good communication, and there has been no such disagreement.

After sending Su Han out of Chang'an, Xue Lang concentrated on planting sweet potatoes and potatoes.In addition to the trial planting by the imperial court, he also planted sweet potatoes on Princess Pingyang Village.

There were a lot of sweet potato vines brought from Weize Pass, and sweet potatoes were a high-yield product. Princess Pingyang followed his advice, and their Zhuangzi only planted three acres of sweet potatoes each.Potatoes are grown as much as they can be grown.

Planting sweet potatoes and potatoes is something we are used to. With experience, it will be easier to plant again.Apart from official business, Xue Lang's energy is spent on the planning of the farm.

At Weizeguan, for military rations, the method of raising fish in lotus ponds was adopted, and both fish and lotus root were obtained.When they arrived in Chang'an, this method was no longer suitable. There were lotus ponds in the two people's houses, and there were only enough lotus seeds and lotus roots harvested every year, and there was no shortage.

Therefore, in Chang'an's farm, Xue Lang did not use the model of lotus pond fish farming, but the three-dimensional farming model of mulberry fish ponds.It means planting mulberry trees by the fish ponds, plus raising silkworms, the excess mulberry leaves and silkworm feces can be fed to fish, and the pond mud in fish ponds can be used as fertilizer, which is recycled and environmentally friendly.

When Xue Lang first came, his foundation was weak, and there were only two farms, one of which was given by Her Highness the Princess.Xue Lang went to visit his two farms on purpose, and designed the farming model according to local conditions.Then I was busy helping Her Royal Highness to design.

Princess Pingyang, as she said, has been operating in Chang'an for a long time and has a deep foundation.Not to mention how many houses there are in Lifang, there are better storefronts in the east and west cities.

Princess Pingyang has many of these that are easy to hide, but there are only three farms that are visible, but the scale is very large.Xue Lang deliberately took the time to actually look at it, and helped her design the farm's business model according to local conditions.

After finishing all this work, the first batch of candy bought by Su Han was also transported to Chang'an.The sugar making workshop was built in Xue Lang's farm, and the people living on the farm were all trilogy, and the secrets were accidentally leaked.The southeast corner of the mansion is just his laboratory and cannot be mass-produced.

After the first batch of frosting sugar was made, ten catties were given to Princess Pingyang, and the rest were quietly listed in the shops in the east city of Chang'an. King Qin invited him to a banquet.
